After the decompression and fusion on my neck, it will all be held together with a titanium plate. I was quite disappointed to learn I will not be setting of alarms at airport metal detectors...

Good to know you will have a quality plate for your neck. Now do you have that TI bike to finish off the ensemble?

Well, you know, you want to save all the weight you can! Steel would be too heavy.

And here I thought it was a new bike. New neck parts instead is awesome! Good luck on your surgery!

I am so glad you're getting titanium and not carbon. Having carbon in there would be like having a ticking time bomb in your neck parts.
Take care, Snap!!
